Patient's question:
Doctor, where should I go for a postpartum check-up? The child has been like this for a while, and as parents, we are very worried. We hope the doctor can give us some advice.Doctor's answer:
Ensure postpartum physical health and recovery of abilities. It is best for the mother to go to the hospital with the baby for a check-up 42 days after delivery. This is because some changes that occur in a woman's body during pregnancy gradually return to normal after childbirth. The check-up includes assessments of the breasts, milk production, uterine recovery, bilateral fallopian tubes and ovaries, postpartum lochia, healing of abdominal and perineal episiotomy wounds, pelvic floor muscle support, blood pressure, and other infant-related examinations such as observing the baby's complexion, mental state, and sucking ability, understanding nutritional and developmental status, and conducting physical examinations. Establish a health record book for the infant. You can also go to other hospitals for a re-examination.
